The first thing to do when setting up your Xray instance is to trigger the Database Sync. JFrog engineers have aggregated information from internal vulnerability research, as well as private and public databases, into one database. This is the basis of all of Xray's findings, as such until the Database Sync is successfully completed Xray will not provide valid results to scans.

You can manually trigger the Database Sync from your Artifactory UI under Administration → Xray → Settings → General → Database Sync

From that menu, you can check on the status of your DB Sync, if it has not started yet you can trigger it by pressing the following button.

Please note that while the first sync will be quite intensive and take a long time, all subsequent synchronizations will be fast and almost unnoticeable.
